This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Why play games with other people at all? People are like the worst

[–] Psythik@lemmy.world 17 points 9 months ago (1 children)

Because AI is predictable and boring (and/or cheats). The human element keeps games exciting.

This is true it is interesting but when I get my ass kicked 9/10 times no matter the game I become uninterested

Inb4 get good

Coop games can have good communities. Deep rock galactic is the prime example

Rock. And. Stone.

Stop playing competitive games and see how fast that changes.

Competitive gamers are assholes who just want to prove they are better than other people.

Sorry that you have such an experience; many online games have fairly toxic communities, others do not; and for every game you can find amazing and kind teammates if you look closely!

Honesty, I played WoW back in the day and was in a cool guild so I've had good experiences. I don't have a network of people that I play with already and don't have the time to go out and build one. I don't love being on mic either so I know its a me thing. There are a lot of fun single player games that are really enjoyable.
